Congressman Flood’s Statement on NU President Ted Carter’s Departure

August 23, 2023

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA – Today, Congressman Mike Flood issued a statement following news that University of Nebraska President Ted Carter plans to step down at the end of the year. 

“Ted Carter successfully led the University of Nebraska system through a period of great change and significant hurdles, including a worldwide pandemic. During his time at NU, he strengthened the university’s finances and helped better connect the system to the communities it serves. He will be a great leader for Ohio State – Mandi and I wish him and Lynda all the best as they prepare for their transition.”

“The University of Nebraska system is one of the most critical institutions charged with developing the next generation of Nebraskans and preparing our young people for the jobs of tomorrow. The Board of Regents has a big task ahead of them to find the right leader who can carry the torch and keep the tradition NU represents in Nebraska strong and growing.”
